Ethernet port doesn't detect the cable is connected and doesn't function

It's since this morning that I can't make my en0 ethernet port work. Please note: changed dozens of cables, hubs, etc. The port simply doesn't detect the cable is plugged in and the actual network interface configuration crashes with the following log upon system boot-up:

I had a similar issue with a MacBook Pro. When connecting the network cable, the network preferences would show 'not connected'. I thought it was hardware, but when I transferred the user to another Mac, I found that that ethernet device all the sudden stopped working as well.
I was able to get the ethernet back with:
System Preferences
->Network
->Assist Me...
->Diagnostics...
At some point the ethernet device went green and all was well.
Maybe this will help.

  • Airport Express Ethernet port doesn't work.

    I bought my airport express little over a year ago, so the new one, and since then the ethernet port stopped working. The only way i can get it to work is by bending the eithernet cable a certain direction and holding it down, other than that it does not recognise there is even a CAT5 cable plugged up to it. Has anyone ever seen this or know what to do to fix it? I do not want to have to buy another.

    This should not be much a problem, unless it's...... you guess it:
    The WAN Port!
    If it is, does changing cables help?
    If it really is the port and not the cables, I"d probably try to fix it manually myself, unless it's still under warranty.

  • I have an Iphone 5S and used to sync it to my computer in the past without any problem, but now I can't and appears the message "usb device not recognized", and the cable is good and so the USB port. Do you have any idea what's the problem?

    Try leaving it plugged in and then restart the computer.

  • While updating my ipad to new software through itunes it got stuck and does not work anymore - it just displays the screen with symbols of itunes and the cable to connect to it - help - what should i do?

    while updating my ipad to new software through itunes it got stuck and does not work anymore - it just displays the screen with symbols of itunes and the cable to connect to it - help - what should i do?

    Disconnect the iPad, do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!, reconnect and follow the prompts.
    If that does not work then see here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • Lost a 2 hard drives, have 7 k photos on a touch that I need to load on IMAC with a new hard drive, how do I do it.  Just never went from a Touch to iMac.  I have the cable hooked up and then what, I don't want to mess up,my last chance to save 7k pics!

    Lost my hard drive and also an Ipad, but have 7 k photos on a Touch that I need to load on fixed IMAC with a new hard drive, how do I do it. (There were more photos than the 7k, but they were saved on other drives, thank goodness).  7K pohotos on the Touch are no where else, must be saved!  Just never went from a Touch to iMac.  I have the cable hooked up and then what, I don't want to mess up,my last chance to save 7k pics!  New Aperture and IPhoto on IMAC with no other photos loaded on the new hard drive yet.

    I'd ask in the iTouch forum where there are more iTouch users there than here and they should know how to off load the photos.  It might take a 3rd party app.

  • Where do i get the cable to connect Ipad to projector?

    Where do I get the cable to connect Ipad2 to digital projector?

    It depends on the kind of projector you refer to. If the projector has a VGA connection, you will need this  cable.
    If the projector has a HDMI connection, you will need this one.
    If you can choose, I would take the HDMI one, since it supports charging your device and playing at the same time. HDMI also carries sound, so you don't need an extra audio cable.
    You will need an additional HDMI-male to HDMI-male or VGA-male to VGA-male cable to connect the apple cable (linked above) to your projector.

  • Everytime I try charging my Note 3 I get an error message: To charge faster, use the cable and device that were provided with this phone.  What is the solution?  The cable is fine and is the original charger!

        Hello teachermama10, The Factory Data Reset does remove all data including files and photos. I understand that making sure your phone information is backed up is of the upmost importance. You can ensure your phone data is backed up using these links: http://vz.to/1uM5mwZ and http://vz.to/1vEzYok. You can also try our great Verizon Cloud feature as an option for backing up and syncing your phone info! Check it out: http://vz.to/1s4GctA.

    Also please provide some links/steps to connect from OSB service to BAM server in 12c.
    Thanks,

    In BAM 12c, you can send data via JMS by configuring an EMS in BAM using the "self-described" payload. Make sure the date formats match correctly. You can configure an error queue which will show you any data parsing problems.

  • Macbook pro 15" mid 2010 i spilled water on keyboard now it wont power on if the battery is connected and the keys on keyboard doesnt work it works fine with no battery and external keyboard if i order a battery and new keyboard will every else work again

    macbook pro 15" mid 2010 i spilled water on keyboard now it wont power on if the battery is connected and the keys on keyboard doesnt work it works fine with no battery and external keyboard if i order a battery and new keyboard will every else work again lik it did before

    If you have records that show that you've taken your MacBook Pro in for a year to fix the machine, I would escalate the problem to Apple Customer Relations - unfortunately I don't have a number for Spain.
    It would only seem logical to me that if you've been trying to have the machine repaired during the time that the 'recall' was in effect that you should be eligible for a new logic board. But only customer relations will be able to make that call.
    Good luck - take the issue as high up the food chain as you can and see what happens.

  • I have a 27" iMac with 16GB of factory installed SDRAM and 1T harddrive.  It is telling me the harddrive is full and is not functioning correctly.  How can I adjust so that all files are managed on the harddrive rather than the SDRAM.  (BTW - design flaw)

    Processor 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory  16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    I have a 27" iMac with 16GB of factory installed SDRAM and 1T harddrive.  It is telling me the harddrive is full and is not functioning correctly.  How can I adjust so that all files are managed on the harddrive rather than the SDRAM.  (BTW - design flaw here.)
    Older Macs with a single Harddrive would simply expand OS management on the drive, and I think I understand the new Fusion Drive to do just that, but how do I get this product that I spent a great deal of money on to be more than a pretty screen?

    I was confused by this statement
    It is telling me the harddrive is full and is not functioning correctly.
    OS X manages ram and when you run out, it create swapfiles to extend your ram on the HDD (Hard Disk Drive). The OS itself, takes about 16 gig of space and that too resides on the HDD.  Your 16 gig of RAM is really a temporary space that holds things from the HDD so the processor can work on them.  There is no design flaw between your ram and HDD.  Something else is going on and there are a lot of smart people here to help you figure out what that "something else" is.
    I would do three things.  First I would create a backup, backups are important.  Second, I would reboot into recovery and repair my HDD.  Lastly while still booted in recovery I would repair permissions.
    Can you capture a screen shot of the exact error you are getting?

  • My iMac keeps on losing internet connection. Webpages get stuck after a minute or so. If I check the internet connection via diagnostics it seems to work just fine. Others, like the iPad use the same wifi connection and never fail. What can I do?

    Running 10.6.8 on Intel dual core iMac, it keeps on losing internet connection. Webpages get stuck after a minute or so. If I check the internet connection via diagnostics it seems to work just fine. Others, like the iPad use the same wifi connection and never fail. What can I do?

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • Built-In Ethernet Port Doesn't Show Up In The Network Preference Pane

    My ethernet port no longer shows up in the Network preferences pane under Network Status. The status Airport and the Internal Modem are still displayed though. Plugging in an ethernet cable causes my machine to crash; sometimes I get a message that I need to hold down the power button to reboot, and other times command line-like text is displayed on top of whatever was on screen.
    The only change I've made to my system since last using a wired connection was installing Security Update 2006-001 on March 1st and OS X Update 10.4.5 on February 14th. After running the 10.4.5 updater, my machine initially refused to reboot. On the first attempt, it played the start up chime, but the screen remained black. The second time, the Apple logo appeared, but the spinning pinwheel never did. The third attempt was successful and my system appeared to be functioning normally.
    How do I get my ethernet port to work again?

    Does "Built-in Ethernet" show up as a choice in the 'Show:" popup? If so, is it configured as you would expect? For instance, if "TCP/IP" is set to use DHCP, do you have an IP address, subnet mask, etc.? There is an "off" setting for TCP/IP; make sure that hasn't been selected somehow.
    There is also an "Assist Me" button that will let you launch the diagnostics app. Does this also crash the Mac? If not, what are the results of its tests?
    Also, you may want to do a permissions repair with Disk Utility if you haven't done this since applying the updates.
    If you still get crashes, there may be a conflict with a log-in item, particularly if you have any third party ones. (Check that in the "Accounts" pref.) One way to diagnose things like that is by creating a new test account & logging into it. If the problems go away, you can assume a user cache, .plist, or login item is the problem.
    If none of this turns up anything, you may need to reinstall the OS. Short of that, you can try downloading the 10.4.5 combo update & running it. It replaces more components than the "delta" update so it just might do the trick. Besides, if you end up having to reinstall the OS, having the combo version handy will save you the time of downloading & installing any incremental updates to get back to 10.4.5.
    As always, backup all important files before applying any updates.
    Good luck!

  • Ethernet Port only working half the time

    I recently moved into a dorm/hotel for the summer, and my internet worked for the first four days I was there. Then one day, it just didn't. It doesn't recognize that the cable is plugged into the wall. The AirPort is fine, and I've been using the wireless connections in the lobby. I had the IT department at the school check the ports in the room, and they believe they're fine. The ethernet cable seems to work in the lobby port, it works half the time in my friends room, but not at all in my room. Any ideas on what's going on or how to fix it?

    You can use http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180. if that does not work you have to do repair.
